Black Business need to reconnect to Black People! Most students who are studying Business in college have no plans to start a business when the graduate. They are following the old standard: Go to college, get an education so you can get a GOOD JOB! Read The Quiet Resolution (TQR) a National Black Empowerment Plan(http://tqrbe.blogspot.com) that connects Black Economic Development and Black People. It will require the talents of Black People who want to be in business and remove all barriers.

Respect!

Thanks for sharing Charles. It is indeed imperative that we collectively support our black businesses. I too, was one of those who was raised to get an education and good job. However, along the way, I lost my identity. I was just an "employee" in corporate and was dispensable. So I decided to become my own boss and teach my daughters that it is the way for us to prosper. They too, want to own their own businesses. I hope you were moved to join BBB and if you have any questions, feel free to email me at chiezda@pampering2prosperity.com or call 443-552-3207.
